Özet

The observability of the Higgs signal in the mass range of 300-800 GeV is searched ill the vector boson fusion process with the CMS experiment at LHC. The fusion process is characterized by two final state jets at large pseudorapidity. The forward calorimeter plays a key role in detecting these jets. The significant signals are obtained for H --> WW --> lvjj and H --> ZZ --> lljj. Importance of the forward jet tagging is emphasized to extract the signal from the large QCD W/Z + jets and the tt backgrounds. This analysis shows that the Higgs with m(H) = 300-800 GeV can be observed in WW and ZZ decay channels with an integrated luminosity of about 10 to 20 fb(-1).
